Sun, 05 Jun 2011 11:18:35 +0000http://www.historiann.com/?p=15457#comment-833907I always understood the “straight” of “credit in the straight world” to equate with a conventionally respectable lifestyle (“leave your money when you die”), rather than sexuality.

(And yes, I know the words to Hole songs.)
